*Confirmed* G+ Changes to Advanced Lightning Lane

[theMoreDisneytheBetter]

Looking at the tiers there is very little of value in the tier 2 bucket at most parks. Thank goodness we go for multiple days. It would be really hard to fight for this if you only have 1 day/park (though to be fair, it’s not inconsistent with how it is at HS currently if you want to ride Slinky).

Soarin is an Epcot Tier 1??? And what happened to Test Track?

Test Track is closed and will be for a while (a year or more?). Perhaps they'll add it to Tier 1 when it reopens (likely will). Soarin' was Tier 1 under Fastpass+.

I don't see any mention of a "multipark" option for the new passes. Does this FAQ on the cited web page answer your question?

I’m planning to visit more than one theme park in the same day. How do I make Lightning Lane Multi Pass selections for more than one park?

yes, thank you!

Sooooo is this the right moment to say be careful what you wished for? Or is it too soon??

I'm pretty happy with these changes, so I guess I got my wish, lol!

I think after TT comes back, Soarin might go down to a Tier 2.

Glad it's working for someone. I am just relieved these horrible changes are not going to DLR.

The general buzz on various outlets seems to be positive. There are a lot of guests excited about it, but I understand not everyone is.

I like it, for the most part. Probably wouldn't use it at Epcot now. Maybe not AK. I don't know, I might. Rope drop is back to being essential though for a lot of guest.

My thoughts are if you go to one park and stay there all day it’s better. If you’re used to hopping and stacking (or just stacking) for the evening it’s worse. Unfortunately I’m in the second group. Hopefully after reading reports though we can make it work well. I’m sure we will but it doesn’t sound great right now.

 

[SL6827]

We might, might come down and do a water park only trip next year, but won't come back down for a park trip until 2026 or 2027. And I'm a sure other changes will come into play by then. But it really seems like doing a longer, more park days itinerary will be the most beneficial. Fortunately that was my plan anyways.

I think this is going to make things worse rather than better....

I liked the Genie+ system, despite the faults that were there... alas....

It appears the multi-park pass is dead for now?

It's working for me, I think it's change in the right direction.

What does this do for a “stacking sleep-in strategy”?

As you might’ve guessed, it kinda obliterates it.


… swell.

Why does it matter? The 120 rule is now gone which makes the process a whole lot simplier for everyone. You use one book another it's pretty simple.

Trying to figure out which lasted longer. Genie Plus or Chapek as CEO.

Looks like Genie Plus ekes out a win, but by only 9 days.

Not crazy about the new name. Lightning Lane Multi Pass

Should just call it Fa$tPa$$+. Could have probably even reused the old signs they are likely storing over in the Galactic Mistakecruiser. Just a few notches on the S's and they would be done. Might even be considered a little nostalgic.

Missed opportunity, Bob.

It was helpful to stack rides for the afternoon at DHS. It’s true the process is simpler now.

Since I never once purchased Genie+, from inexperience this seems easier to me. Somewhat like FP+ booking, just 7+lengthy of stay. With a family of 6 maybe would only get it a few days for select parks. Would love if they would throw it in for deluxe resorts for free but if they are always booked to capacity, no point in trying to incentivize people to stay there.
